How to enjoy 'The Great Indoors'

As the famous “Oklahoma!” song goes, the wind really does come “sweepin' down the plains” across the state - especially during these first few chilly months! However, while the cooler weather might make it hard to enjoy the great outdoors every once awhile, Norman has plenty of indoor activities to explore as well.

Have some family fun and get your workout in all at once at Climb Up! This 12,000 square-foot indoor climbing gym includes auto belays, areas for bouldering and lead climbing, and a toddler-safe climbing room perfect for any little aspiring climbing pro. They even offer yoga classes for all skill levels Monday-Saturday - check out the full class schedule here.

Looking to burn off even more energy? Swing by Get Air! Norman, a trampoline park, located right inside the Sooner Mall. This park features vertical trampolines, basketball courts, a dodgeball area, and even a way to review your trick jumps and flips via their delayed-view recording cameras on flatscreen TVs. From tikes to teens to adults, this trampoline park has something for everyone.

Don’t rely on Oklahoma’s ever-changing winter weather to cooperate during your next event. Instead, prepare ahead and celebrate your upcoming event at The Main Street Event Center. With amenities including catering, a full service bar, limo service, two separate rooms from which to choose (one big enough for up to 350 guests) this modern downtown venue is the perfect place to enjoy your next gathering despite what the weather may bring.

There’s no better time than the winter to sit back and relax as you sip on a hot cup of coffee at Stella Nova - Norman’s newest local coffee house [📸: stellanova]. Located conveniently on Main St., this shop offers a great place to slow down and enjoy the smell of coffee grounds as you cozy up inside and dream of warmer days ahead.
